A R C H E R M O R G A N (Crimson Orca's Captain)
"What is taking her for so long?"
"Oh god she is making papansin ba to the captains?"
"For sure she doesn't know how to read."
I saw Law turned around and glared at the women sitting at our back and they immediately shut up. Ang iksi talaga ng pasensya.
"Why are you trying so hard to concentrate eh for sure hindi ka pa rin naman pipili ngayon." Puna ko dito.
Totoo naman kasi. Akala mo naman talaga pipili sya sa mga nandito eh hindi naman yan tumatanggap ng bagong miyembro.
"Shut up Morgan." I chuckled at him. She sounded so irritated. What did I even do? I just pointed out the truth cause he looks like he is so interested in this woman kasi kanina lang tulog siya mula nang magsimula ang final exam tapos ngayon naka focus na siya.
"Ali Torres?" I rolled her name in my tounge. "Why does her name sounds familiar?"
I said while looking at the woman in the middle of the field. Her back is facing us so we don't get to see her face. She doesn't even looked at the camera. Nakayuko lang ito kaya hindi makikita sa screen ang mukha nito but I really feel like I've heard her name somewhere. Her silhouette also reminded me of someone but I can't figure out who. But I do think that she is a foreigner because of her blonde hair and the way she dressed herself.
"Sa sobrang dami ba naman ng babae mo baka may kapangalan sya don." Sabat naman ni Cat. Napa tsk ako dito. Anlakas talaga ng loob nitong pagsabihan ako ng masasamang words. Nakakasakit na sya ng loob.
"Wala naman akong babae ah! Alam mong ikaw lang ang gusto ko."
"Shut up Archer. Seriously, what's taking her so long to read what's written on that paper. Does she even knew how to read- wait! don't tell me.."
Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa na parang may na realize. Alam ko iisa lang ang hinala namin ngayon. Hindi ko na sinali si Law kasi wala namang paki yan.
"Special level." That voice. Napatingin kami lahat sa gitna ng marinig namin iyon.
I saw how she crumpled the paper in her hand and raised her head. Sinasabi ko na nga ba. Kaya pala antagal niyang basahin yon kasi for sure, nag de debate yan kung itutuloy pa ba niya o hindi ang pagkuha ng exam.
What an unlucky woman. Might as well just drop dead.
Sumandal ako sa kinauupuan ko. Now what are you gonna do?
Lahat kami nakatutok sa kanya mismo. Hindi sya naglabas ng kahit na anong weapon. Is she that confident in herself or she just surrendered and let herself be killed by the illusion demons?
1000 Class A lesser demons appeared in front of her. My brows furrowed when I noticed something is wrong. In the middle of the horde of demons, there is one demon that is 5 times bigger than the others.
I looked at it closely. It is not just a normal demon. A class B demon is as big as a body builder, a Class A is thrice as big as a body builder but this one.. it is 5 times bigger than a Class A demon. My eyes widened in realization.
Don't tell me that is a demon general?
Just like us, they also have their own rankings and a demon general is a fucking monster compared to the others.
Shit.. why the hell a demon general is here? We can't even handle a class A demon in its full power, paano pa kaya ito? Headmaster never mentioned about this earlier.
"Something is wrong." I heard Law uttered. "That demon general, is not an illusion."
My eyes widened. What the hell?!
Nakita ko ang pag panic ng mga professor at ang naguguluhang mukha ng mga estudyante na walang ideya sa nangyayari. They tried to enter the barrier pero hindi sila makapasok. This barrier is designed to stop others from interfering the fight. You can't break through it unless the fight is over or the person inside is dead.
If that is not an illusion, it means if that woman died inside, she will also gonna die in real life.
The professors called us, the captains to help but we are stopped by Caterina.
"Stay where you are Captains." She said with full of authority.
"What the hell Cat! An examiner's life is in danger and you want us to stay put?" I almost raised my voice at her.
"What can we possibly do? Does she look like someone who is in danger? Look.. she is the calmest.. I have a feeling that somsthing interesting will happen." We trust Caterina because all her predictions were never wrong but an examiner's life is at risk.
Sabay sabay kaming napatingin sa gitna and we realize that she isn't even nervous even in the slightest. Kani kanina lang ay halatang takot pa ito na sabihin kung anong level ang nakuha niya pero ngayon parang wala lang sa kanya ang nangyayari.
The demons started charging towards her but she didn't even took out a weapon. She just stood there, unmoving.
Is she just waiting for her death? Is she really gonna drop dead?
"Hey move!" I shouted but its useless. She cannot hear anything from outside because of the barrier.
There are only few meters distance between her and the demon, when she slowly raised her right hand and I felt like everything turned to slowmo. All the demons just bursted out as if an invisible force hit it. Kasabay nun ay ang pagsabog ng barrier na nakapalibot sa buong field.
Thanks to the professors that immediately put out a barrier no students were harmed. We are protected by their barrier and we also assisted them to make this barrier.
*crack
Biglang may kung anong pwersang nanggaling sa sumabog na barrier ang bumangga sa barrier na ginawa namin dahilan para mag crack ito. Shit!
Nang medyo umayos na ang lahat ay saka lang namin tinanggal na namin ang barrier.
Phew. That was close. She is crazy, that woman is crazy.
Everyone calmed down at the very least and we jsut waited for the results. I stared at her and I was taken aback when she turned her head towards my direction and she caught my gaze.
*crack
My heart thumped the moment I saw her face and the pencil in my hand broke in half.
"Alicia." I whispered.
"Looks like someone came back from the dead." It was from Ezio.
"No. She isn't." Cat interrupted and pointed the monitor at us.
Pagkatapos nun ay sabay sabay kaming napatingala sa monitor ng mag beep ito. Tanda na nandoon na ang resulta.
NAME: Ali Torres
LEVEL: Special
EXAM SCORE: 1000/1000
KILLS: Class C Demon General
ABILITY: S-Rank Fire mage
Ali Torres.. Right.. her name is Ali Torres. My cousin Alicia is an ice element user but this woman's ability is fire. Maybe they just look exactly alike. And besides... we were there at her funeral.
The camera focused on her face kaya kitang kita ito sa monitor. I flinched when she glanced at the camera and smiled as if nothing had happened.. but for a split second, I saw her eyes turned pitch black. Sandali lang yon pero kitang kita ko ang pagbabago ng kulay ng mata nya.
Its so dark that when you look into it, it will succumb you to an unending darkness.
What the hell was that?
Palihim na inayos ng mga professor ang nangyaring aberya. Ayaw kasi nilang magpanic ang mga taong nandirito ngayon sa stadium. Pagkatapos nun ay saka lang pinagpatuloy ang physical exam. Palihim din nilang iniimbestigahan kung bakit mayroong demon general ang nakapasok dito at bakit nagkaroon ng aberya ang illusion magic.
The university's barrier protects the Morgan University from enemies like demons and people with ill-intent, so how come a demon general manage to sneak in?
And you know what is real mystery? She is an A-Rank Fire mage yet we didn't saw her use fire while dealing to those demons. How did she kill them just by raising her hands and also alone?
Hanggang level A demon lang ang kaya namin at nagtutulungan pa kami para lang mapatay iyon. Pero siya... What tricks did she do?
Who the hell is this woman and why does she looked like... my dead cousin?
A L I's POV
"You're so cool Ali!" Sam exclaimed with so much excitement in her voice when I went back to our benches.
"Am I?" I smiled at her lightly. See? Even Sam thought that I was cool. She nodded abruptly.
"You're like swoosh and then boogsh then crack!" She make sounds and hand movements that you'll never understand what she's saying. "I didn't even see you use your ability but they're all boogsh!"
"Can you speak clearly? I can't understand what you're trying to say." I chuckled.
"Ah sorry hehe. Nadala lang ako ng excitement and you don't know how nervous nang malaman ko na special level pa talaga ang nabunot mo! That's crazy!"
Yeah, that was a terrifying one. I really wasn't supposed to do that earlier if not just because of the unexpected turn of events.
I yawned because of boredom. Clearly, we can't go outside unless all of the contestants were all finish and I am f*cking bored right now.
Nagpaalam ako kay Sam na pupunta lang ako ng restroom. I walked faster when I sensed that someone has been following me. Actually I noticed this earlier when I went back to Sam that someone has been fixing gaze at me but I shrugged it off thinking that it was just one of the people shocked by my performance earlier. Well, turns out I was just assuming things.
I entered the girls restroom headed straight to one of the cubicles and the person following me so entered but she didn't enter a cubicle and just stood outside. I can sense her aura from her. I know that she is a she because she entered the girls restroom right?
 I was quite amazed how clean and spacious it is inside. Pwede ka ngang matulog dito, but there's no way I'll sleep here. I'm just suggesting it to you. Well, maybe one day if I'll be homeless again I'll try sleeping here without anyone knowing but looking at my situation right now, I doubt that'll happen.
I stayed inside the cubicle for 5 minutes and I heard other students entering the cubicles and then out. I grew tired of waiting for the person following me to left so I heaved a deep sigh before opening the door and right, a woman is really standing outside the door of my cubicle.
She has a wavy, brown hair with blue highlights and she has a pair of sharp, blue eyes. An elemental.
"Who are you?" She asked in a stern voice but I gave her a confused look.
I should be the one asking her that, right?
"I asked you who are you? Why are you here at our university? What is your purpose here and why did you show up now? Did the dark triad sent you to-"
*pak
She didn't have the chance to finish what she is saying because my hands didn't let her. I totally meant to do it and I didn't bother to stop myself from slapping her. How dare she accused me of being affiliated with those dirty scums.
Her deep, blue eyes widened in disbelief as she held her right cheek that I slapped.
"Don't you think I should be the one asking who are you and what do you want from me?"
She was taken aback when I spoke.
"If you just approached me differently, it wouldn't have happened to you." I took a deep breath and let out a sharp sigh. "To answer your question, I am Ali Torres. I am here to study and live and quiet life but you just ruined that chance and I showed up just now because I want to. And also, don't affiliate me with those dirty scums."
Nilampasan ko ito at mahina siyang binangga sa balikat saka dire diretsong naglakad palabas ng restroom. "Also, get some ice cause I'm afraid your pretty face will swell. Sayang ang magandang mukha mo."
I slammed the restroom door behind me and walked back to the stadium. Shit. I forgot to wash my hands. I mentally slapped myself because of what I acted towards that girl. I let my emotions control me but I didn't regret it tho. But why is it that she approached me that way?
